Rd 1 - Extremely cautious start by Gamboa standards. Barros looks solid, nothing special, didn't do anything in that round. But concentrated well not to make mistakes. Looked a little flustered by Gamboa's flurry at the end. Gamboa on work-rate.

Round 2 - Gamboa 10-9 - Got caught with a decent right hand by Barros but manages to catch him with a couple of decent punches, there's hardly any action whatsoever. Gamboa is being extra cautious and doing lots of feints, he doesn't look as fast as usual. Stay tuned folks this one may go a few..

Rd 2 - The most interesting observation I can make is Gamboa has strange shorts, German flag on the front, Cuban on the back. Gamboa just starting to find a rhythm but far from his whirlwind best. Not much coming from Barros. He's having no trouble holding centre ring but he ain't doing **** but looking for the occasional jab. He needs to realize he can't wait for the perfect opportunity, the more tickets you buy the more chance of winning the lottery.

Round 3 - Dominant round for Gamboa, really let his hands go at the beginning and Barros was hanging on, Barros doesn't offer little or no offence but has enough heart to hang in there and expierence to hold on when neccessary. Gamboa started to showboat towards the end with the Ali Shuffle dominant round Gamboa 10-9

Rd 3 - Gamboa upped the gears, we're seeing more marauding flurries from him now. Barros taking them well but you couldn't claim he looks untroubled. Barros just isn't doing a whole a whole lot and the crowd seem to be voicing their displeasure.
